13. One of the Rocky movies, the one with Mr. T.
Great list! I recognized almost all of them.
1) Color Purple; 2) Airplane!; 5) Caddyshack; 8) Batman; 10) 48 hours; 13) Rocky III.
So I only got 5. I hope at least I got them right!
Wow, I only think of know two of them. #8 Batman and #13 Rocky # something.
I could hear Oprah's voice in my head when I read #1 and Jack Nicholson's voice when I read #8. Thanks for the awesome list!
Thanks to all who took part. Some of you did very well. For those who didn't, don't sweat it. Even for movies that we've seen, identifying a quote from it can be hard.
Amy: Your comments about #13 had me cracking up. Because you do have ovaries, you may be able to better appreciate the slo-mo scene where Rocky and Apollo are running on the beach.
Heather: I hope you got #3 correct. :-)
Beckeye: Mickey's death has always bothered me because it was never addressed that it was Clubber's fault.
Smittenly Written: I have a joke/theory about Road House. You can turn your TV to AMC at any given time and have a 33.5% chance of catching Road House.
Here are the quotes again, followed by the movie:
